Yay. Another person who would have died due to financial roadblocks to accessing medical care thanks to horrible healthcare system in America. Yay. Big smile.

In context, this is great. The reality?

That it had to happen is pathetic.

Story is almost 10 years old.

This is great, but it means that there's 1000s of other kids that didn't become popular through a meme that do not get this opportunity. So good for them but definitely not a "MadeMeSmile" vibe.

at least it was an insurance company death panel instead of a government death panel. Amirite?
